Jose Santiago

Biography

From just a curly-headed kid from Eastern Pennsylvania to now a first-generation college student-athlete at Mercy University, my journey is built on faith, grit, and determination. I am a men’s lacrosse player and a Health Sciences major, committed to excellence in both academics and athletics. As the first person in my family to play lacrosse, I take pride in representing where I come from and showing that with a clear vision and strong work ethic, any goal can become a reality. Guided by my faith in Christ, I find the good in all situations and see every day as a blessing—another opportunity to improve in every aspect of life and who I am. I have a strong passion for fitness, training, personal development, community, and education. I want to be a representation for anyone who strives for self-improvement. I’m excited to partner with brands who value the dreamers, great work ethic, authenticity, and positivity.
